Pete Gray Story

Summary:Sentimental dramatization of Pete Gray's story. Keith Carradine (with one arm tied behind his back) plays the one-armed baseball player of the 1940s who not only realized his dream of playing in the major leagues (he was with the St. Louis Browns briefly) but inspired a handicapped youngster. Dennis Weaver and Fionnula Flanagan are his Slavic farm parents, Mare Winningham is the woman he learns to love, and Huckleberry Fox is the one-armed youngster who worships him.
